現在進行形 = present tense, I think?
I actually was wondering if anyone knew about the usage for this one, cause I found it in a sentence that goes something like
「五月に現在進行形で彼女が語った」
And I have no idea what role that word has in the sentence

A person can use the present progressive at any point in time… You can say something in the present tense yesterday. Or you can say something in the past tense tomorrow. How does the grammar the person used in that moment relate to the sentence explaining the moment.

Well here’s the original sentence
5月に現在進行形 で増原裕子 とパートナー関係を続けていることをカミングアウトした。
I interpreted it as:
In May, she came out about her ongoing relationship with her partner, Masuhara Hiroko.
but that interpretation just ignores the use of 現在進行形で because neither I nor my teacher knew what to do with it and hadn’t seen it used in this way before.

Yeah, basically “she talked about her ongoing relationship with that guy using the present progressive tense” (that it had already been going on) which is still a little odd because most people don’t explicitly talk about grammar jargon in non-grammar discussions, but I get what it was saying.
